In Inwood, Uptown Cares held a telethon Sunday at CUNY in the Heights, 5030 Broadway, to support Staten Island residents.

The group, supported by community leaders and local elected officials, raised $166,960.

“The city comes through for hurricane victims," said Jose Calderon, president of the Hispanic Foundation. "Uptown, in the Hispanic community, we have a keen sense of giving in times of tragedy. This is an opportunity for Uptown to come together and to give for the city.”
